Camp-Meetings Their Object, and How to Conduct Them

Objects for Which Funds Should be Raised at Camp-meeting

At our camp-meetings the standard is to be raised, the ensign of our faith and practice, inscribed, “Here are they that keep the commandments of God and the faith of Jesus.” PH130 44.1

None are to take advantage of these occasions when the greatest number of people may be reached, in order to introduce special interests or to raise means for the various benevolent objects that are becoming so numerous. The work of God in the ministry of the Word, the promulgation of the truth in the regions beyond, the great interests of educational work in new fields, and the establishment of Sanitariums in connection with the work of the gospel ministry,—these are objects that should be presented to the people in our camp-meetings.
